A bass player friend of mine told me drummer Buddy Rich said that on his
death bed and the wording was "Dying is easy... comedy's a bit..ch" I'm not
disputing the Oscar Wilde version just saying I've never heard it.
Now about humor. I don't know who the sarcastic subject line is aimed at,
maybe me. It's hard to tell what's what because I block attacks on vpFREE by rs
using new screen names all the time. If any of you hate my guts or my humors
guts please use your spam controls to poofer me. I can't promise I'll ever
think of anything worth reading other than my perception of humor reality.
The very first pure humor list on the net was called "HUMOR-L" It was run
out of a university in Georgia I think. People would submit jokes from all over
the world. I'd tell one and some guy from India would write and ask, "What
did you mean by that?" I'd write back and say, "You and all your Hindu buddies
were in the audience last night at the Four Queens when I was doing standup
weren't you?" The Indian guy would submit a joke, "A sacred cow stepped in the
river then decided to step back out because her bingo card got wet." I'd
have to write him a letter.
